Good morning everyone, in the Splinterlands game, there is no option to upgrade or level up cards to prove yourself as strong and defeat your opponents on the battlefield. Especially when increasing the level of a card doubles its attack power, that upgrade can turn the game around. Today, I have upgraded a wonderful epic card from the rebellion edition of Water Splinter, 'Abyssal Elemental', from level 1 to level 2. In today's article, I will discuss in detail the characteristics of this card, the upgrade process, the analysis of the enhancement, and its effect on the battlefield.
First, let's get to know the basics of the card. 'Abyssal Elemental' is an Epic rarity card of the Water unit. It is included in the new Rebellion edition of the game. Just looking at the graphics and design of the card, it is clear that it refers to some terrible demonic force from the depths of the sea.
Name: Abyssal Elemental
Splinter: Water
Rarity: Epic
Mana Cost: 6
Attack Type: Magic
This 6 mana card can be an ideal choice for mid to high mana battles. Since it is a magic attack card, it can directly damage health by ignoring the opponent's armor.
Friends, in the Splinterlands game, a total of four playing cards or BCX (Base Card Experience) are required to take an Epic card from Level 1 to Level 2. I began with 1 replica of this card. Later, I accumulated 3 greater playing cards from the marketplace and mixed them. According to the screenshot you furnished, this card is presently available on the market for round $0.Fifty-two to $0.Fifty-nine each. That way, a complete set of four cards requires a price or cost of round $2 to stage 2.
After upgrading the card, its Collection Power has increased from 100 to 400, which will help me push my rank and play in higher leagues.
Many might wonder, what difference will it make if you increase it by just one level? But in the case of abyssal elemental, there is a huge difference between level 1 and level 2. Let's compare the stats:
** Level 2 stats:**
Magic attack: 2 (this is where the main change comes in)
Speed: 2
Armor: 2
Health: 5
Ability: Resurgence
If you look closely, the card only dealt 1 magic damage at level 1. But as soon as it reached level 2, its damage increased to 2. There is a huge difference between 1 damage and 2 damage in Splinterlands. Because sometimes it is not possible to kill the opponent with 1 damage due to the healing ability of the opponent's Healer or Tank. But 2 magic damage can definitely put pressure on the opponent per round. Even if the speed, armor, and health are the same, the main benefit of this upgrade is that the damage is doubled.
This ability is a lot like "Resurrect" or rebirth, but with a terrible twist.
Resurgence: When this card dies during battle, it will come back to life once with 100% health and armor. That is, this 6 mana card is actually giving you double service. To kill it, you have to kill the opponent twice.
Removing negative effects: All magic de-buffs (such as Poison or Weaken) on it will be removed during rebirth.
Damage dealing: The most interesting thing is that when this card is reborn or revived, it deals 1 physical damage to all units on the battlefield.
This 1 damage can frequently decide the final results of the sport. Especially if the opponent has any 1 fitness playing cards (which includes Chicken or some other low-fitness help card), Abyssal Elemental will take those playing cards with itwhilet it dies and comes back to existence. However, it ought to be remembered that this harm additionally falls on the playing cards of your team, so you ought to be cautious while putting in your team.
Due to this 6 mana card and its "Resurgence" ability, some specific strategies should be adopted to use it:
As an Off-Tank: Since it has 2 armor and 5 health, it is better to put it in the second or third position rather than the first. However, if the ruleset is such that armor is important, it can also be given to the frontline because it will come back with full health once it dies.
Magic Lovers: If the game ruleset is with "Obsidian" or a summoner that increases magic attack, then this card becomes even more dangerous. Although it is a Water Splinter, its 2 magic damage (at level 2) in the Dragon Summoner or Dual Element ruleset can be terrifying for the opponent.
Counter Strategy: When you see the opponent using low-health and high-speed cards, it is wise to use this card. Because when they hit it, it will revive and deal 1 damage to all cards, which will also apply to cards with high speed or dodge (because this damage can be unavoidable depending on the situation).
In my gaming experience, upgrading Abyssal Elemental to level 2 was a good decision. For just $2, I got a card that does magic attacks, revives itself, and deals earthquake damage to the entire battlefield when revived.
For those who want to play with Water Splinter and are collecting cards from the Rebellion set, I could propose at least leveling this card to degree 2. Because the distinction among 1 magic attack and a couple of magic attacks can make the difference between winning and losing the sport. In the future, I will attempt to take this card to a better degree, in which its stats will grow even greater.
